AN OLD-FASHIOyED GIRL.


Old.fsshiouedi Yes. must confess
The antique pattern OF her dress.
Tie ancient frlls and fnrbelows,
The faded ribbons and the BOWS.
WHY Abe should show those shrunken charnA
That kcd neck, those tawny arms,
Icannot guess; her russell gown
Round her spare form hangs loosely down.
Her voice Ia thin and cracked her eye
nd smile have lost their witehrry.
BY those faint tests. that Tagging Wiz
BY each attenuatod curl,
She surely Is. must admit
An odd old-iashioned girl
IT'S long. long since she had bean,
And now with those who sit arrow
Along the wall she takes her place,
With something OF the Old-time grace.
She yearns 10 Join the may waltz,
And slyly shifts her smelling salts
All, many an angel In disguise
May walk bo.orc our human eyes!
Where'er the fever-smitten lie
In grimy haunts of poverty,
Along the dark aud squallid street.
Mid drunken jests of boor aud churl,
She goes with swift and plying feet
This same od-fashioned girl

time to read and less employment to divert
their minds into useful and instructive
channels
II would BIO great exaggeration to
say that all or nearly all readers of dime
novels aud flashy, sensational papers and
magazines 20 to the bad. A very large
proportion do not become criminals or
descend into the slums, but their views
Of life become dwarfed or distorted 80 as
to render them unhappy, aud they be-
como the cause Of much unhappiness to
all connected with them, either in the
family circle or among friends.
II is not necessary that young people,
and children especially should have their
reading matter limited to the goody-goody
books that in some respects are as objec-
tionable as dime novels. There are many
excellent books, magazines and papers
now published especially for young peo-
pie that are not only highly interesting
but instructive, and tend to develop the
moral character as we'll as the mind
1t is the duty Of parents to know what
their children--small or large---read, to
forbid the reading Of Objectionable mat
ter, and to provide for them wholesome
literature.
The daily as well as the popular week.
ly paper is largely read by children and
youths. While it is objected that much
is published 10 such papers that should
be kept from the eyes Of children, it is
the duty Of parents to teach them to
separate the good from tho bad. Moral
lessons may be taken and strength Of
character developed from the accounts
daily published Of great and even in-
famous crimes The worthy parent
teaches bis or her children to avoid bad
company, and to pay no attention 10 i'm
proper language heard on the streets
